We need to see more than that area you’ve posted. 🙂🤙 Edited October 27, 2021 by Galen130 grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comicvt Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Book is in great shape just don’t know how that green ink in the corner will affect the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 The ink mark won't have any bearing at all on the grade. None. I'm up around 8.0 to 8.5 with only the colour breaking stress along the very top edge of front cover holding it back. A wonder to behold, you lucky fella...thanks for sharing!

I'm in the absolutely no effect camp as well, especially considering that this book appears to have a blown bottom staple.

LowGradeBronze Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Zzutak, you have eagle eyes! I revise my grade downwards I'm afraid. Strictly speaking with a blown or popped staple the highest grade that can be given is probably around a 4.0 but book presents much nicer. Comicvt, can you confirm the cover is off the bottom staple? It does look that way. Edited October 26, 2021 by LowGradeBronze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comicvt Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Thank you very much for the replies!!! The staple is detached from the cover but attached in the book, does it affect the grade that much?? What a bummer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAR1979 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Don't think it will have an bearing.

Azkaban Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 the ink mark will no affect, I think you might have had a chance at 9.0 but the blown staple is going to kill you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 5.5 The ink will have no bearing on the grade at this or any other range. Thanks for sharing. Nice copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree 100%. 8.5ish and the printing defect will not affect the grade at that level. Gorgeous book! - Edit - I didn't realize the staple was popped. I think the book will get a 6.5 or so in that case. Edited October 27, 2021 by FFB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
